There are so many but I would say James Lee Burke and Dennis Lehane for so-called crime genre fiction because they take so much care to get things just right. One all should read is Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole because it's hilarious -- something that's really hard to pull off in a book. He breaks a lot of writing rules and gets away with it.
